Deactivating and activating automatic recovery

Automatic recovery is performed by a subtask of the HCL Workload Automation for Z subsystem. You request that this subtask should be started by specifying RECOVERY(YES) on the OPCOPTS initialization statement. If this is specified, automatic recovery is started and stopped when the HCL Workload Automation for Z subsystem is started and stopped.

Automatic recovery can be deactivated and activated using the SERVICE FUNCTIONS option from the main menu. When automatic recovery is deactivated, the ended-in-error jobs or started tasks remain on the ended-in-error list, regardless of RECOVER statement. Requests from the MODIFYING THE CURRENT PLAN panel HANDLING OPERATIONS ENDED IN ERROR panel are, however, honored, regardless of whether automatic recovery is activated or deactivated. See Recovery actions from the Modifying Current Plan panel.
